Thu, 06 Oct 2011 14:12:17 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=90761#comment-205843How many losses did Valverde?

How many does Rivera have?

Saves are as much about the situation before the reliever enters the game as they are about what the reliever does once he get there. The fact that Valverde gave up his runs when the team was up by 2 or 3, or when they were tied, does not change the fact that he gave up more baserunners, more runs, more HR and allowed them at a higher rate than Mo.

A few of us did survive. As the Nats win more often, many front-runners will emerge from their caves, proclaiming themselves survivors.
